If you plug in a headset in the PDA, the microphone underneath the PDA is automaticly turned off (because it assumes you have a microphone on the headset).
Is it possible to prevent this?
If i use my own head-phones without mic, i have to unplug it if the phone rings, else i can talk!
Does anyone know?
GeeZuZz,
I use an fm radio cigarette adapter to play my music through my car stereo and when my phone rings I only have to answer it and my mike does not cut out, the caller can hear me fine and I hear them through the car speakers so I know this doesnt totally answer your question but using the headphone out on mine does not cut out the mike.

Hmm... if i answere the phone with the headset plugged in, they can't hear me. But if i disconnect it, and put it slowly in, they can hear me... in other words, theres a software restriction.
Any way to override this? I'll probably never use a headset anyway (the bundled one was crap).
GeeZuZz,
It is a hardware issue. If you look at your headset's plug, you will notice that it is divided into 4 bands.
1. earth(common)
2. Right earpiece
3. left earpiece
4. mic
When inserted into the socket, the bands actually physically cut signals to the speakers and mic in the device (more like a switch).
Because your headphones stll have the same 3.5mm shape, it will also cut signal to the devices on your pda and transfers the signals to your headphones that has only 3 bands (none for mic obviously).
from my experience, i think its up to the jack that you plugged in to the device, if the jack is a stereo (has 3 black rings), the device will think that a mic is present, thus automatically disabling it. but if the jack is mono (2 ring) the mic will still be enable.
Three black rings(4 bands) mean stereo phones + mono mic. Two Black rings( 3 bands) mean stereo phones only.
Hmm... are there any way i can modify the jack, so that it will not disconnect the mic? Like putting some plastic on the piece of the jack where the mic is supposed to make the connection?
I bought a new sony headphone with microphone today. Though it says "headset for iphone calls", the mic actually works. The issue is that its sensitivity is way too low and people can hardly hear me through the headphone mic.
it's really frustrating cuz I already had a headphone and I buy this one mainly for making phone calls...
So my question is that, is there a way to control the voltage gain of the mic independently?
thank you guys in advance~~~~~
I have been researching online about using car aux-in cable for making phone calls.
I heard that some phones work and some do not. In those cases, when it doesn't work, it means that the person in the phone cannot hear what you say, because by default the mic is muted when something is plugged in to the jack.
With HTC Sensation, does this happen? Is the phone mic muted when a headset/aux cable is plugged in to the phone? If yes, is there any workaround? What is the general solution to make phone calls via aux cable?
I heard that some people might use the griffin cable with mic, but since my aux port is located where the shifter is, I am not sure how the quality would be. Any idea?
Thanks

well, i hope this answers ur question
i have made calls/received calls via aux (when im listening to music in da car n get a phone call i dont uplug it, just answer)
i talk thru the mic normally and i hear the other person from tha car speakers.
so i guess the mic is not muted
From previous experience - though not with Sensation, as I'm all blue-tooth now, the following was true
If you plug in a normal 3.5mm TRS jack (stereo headphone / line-in / etc) the phone detects it as headphones and not headset, so the device realised there was no "in-line" mic, and used the phone's microphone itself.
A better option (which I did) was to fashion my own lead - using another HTC headset, but removing the two earphones, and soldering the cables to an in-line socket. This worked well, because I had a microphone clipped to me, with remote control for music (don't want to touch the phone when driving now, do we!!) and the stereo audio feed back to the car speakers. Cost me about £3 in total, including the second headset.
I would imagine this to be the same for the Sensation too, as all these sockets have various detection mechanisms, to make the right things happen, depending on what you connect.
Good luck, and safe driving!
When I use my OPO with headphones and get a call, I can hear the person through the headset but the mic doesn't work/pick up my voice and neither does the phone mic. I have to take out the headphones and phone the person back for them to hear me.
Does anyone else have this problem? I tested them on my N4 and the work fine.
What headphones are you using? My Pistons work fine.

A lot of people are having this problem. It has to do with the TRRS OMTP vs CTIA configuration (left,right,mic,ground vs left,right,ground,mic) and maybe something to do with resistances as well. If your headphones were designed for "iPhone" chances are the mic won't work. People have tried using the CTIA OMTP adapters, but that hasn't worked. There are some headphones that do work, (like the Pistons mentioned above). One thing you can do to fix this problem is download soundabout from google play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix&hl=en). In the wired headset section, you can tell it to ignore the mic in headsets, this way it will still use the builtin oneplus mic instead of your headphone mic. Not a good fix, but it's all we can do until they come up with a patch. This is a huge issue that's been on Jira, but there's no indication if this will ever be fixed.
Hey guys,
i've a great problem with my nexus 5: The mic on call works only when speaker are on. if i stop speakers and start audio from top speaker mic is mute.
Now i've bought some replacemente, i've changed mainboard and mic, but the problem is always the same.
I've tried to teardown the nexus. When i put off the part of speakers mic works on call, when this speaker is on mic stop to work and have to activate it to speak on phone.
Some one have some idea?
